The Journey
In early 2022, Ozcan Group noticed that its traditional hiring processes—primarily phone screens and in-person interviews—were not keeping pace with the company’s expanding project pipeline. High-volume applications meant hiring managers had less time to thoroughly assess the technical and interpersonal abilities critical to the company’s reputation for excellence.
